Lilla Akademien

Lilla Akademien, best translated as “The Junior Academy”, is a Stockholm-based music school funded in 1994 to give its pupils a solid musical foundation on which to build their lives. In a few years, Lilla Akademien has become one of the most significant institutions for the education of young musicians in Scandinavia, and has established itself as an important part of the Stockholm music scene, performing numerous concerts across the country every year. This unique school offers full-time tuition in music and regular schooling for children from 6 years and up, and enthusiastically welcomes students from all backgrounds in a willingness to reflect Sweden’s multiculturalism.

“We cannot rest until we see that what we do, actually makes a difference on the ground and improves the lives of people.”

Ambassador and Permanent Representative of Sweden to the United Nations in New York, Olof Skoog, gives a personal account of his experience representing Sweden on the United Nations Security Council. He emphasizes the importance of listening to the real voices around the world, to make a greater impact on the ground.
